Player List Miscalculating

    My page is for a local billiards league, there are only 2 stats for each player, wins and losses. It’s very simple. The exact same setup works perfect for my other pool league.
    Somehow the Player Lists are adding ghost stats to players. I’ve gone back through each game and manually checked everyone’s entered stats, and they are all correct, just not on the Lists. For instance, everyone plays 3 games a week, and in a max of 15 weeks played, some players have over 50 played games listed between wins and losses. Everyone’s total games played should add up directly to a multiple of 3, but almost nobody’s does.

    The page I need help with: [log in to see the link]

    Hi!

    Thanks for reaching out and I’m sorry for the trouble.

    The easiest way to check this would be setting all events as drafts. Then you check what you have for the player lists stats (backend).

    It should be zero, if it isn’t, check further events or if you have any sort of adjustments that could be messing up your stats.

    Next, you publish events one by one (or a few at a time) and check the player lists (always in the wp-admin) to see how it behaves. You should see when there is a jump, and which event is causing it.

    Thanks!

    Alright, so I did what you said and was able to identify the problem immediately, but I don’t know how to solve it.

    The problem is that individual losses(under player performance) and team losses(under Event Outcomes) were both assigned the same variable “loss” and it’s adding one loss to individual stats when the player’s team loses on the player lists.

    How do I edit the variable name without having to delete a config variable and thus having to re-enter all of my scores?

    Hi!

    Thanks for your reply.

    Unfortunately, there’s no easy way around this. Since your data entry is assigned to the wrong variable you’ll need to re-enter it.

    You could write a script to do that for you, but this is fairly complicated and requires coding knowledge.

    Thanks!
